States at Uan Hana for 44 days. It felt like home. The location is quiet at convenient. Everything is accessible either by walking or taking the bus. The neighborhood is away from the tourist area but near them. You get to experience local life and walks along the canals. The only thing about the unit we stayed at is I wish there’s more natural light. Other than that, we loved our stay here and would come back again.

The houses were great with lots of charm and a very friendly and attentive host. They were very pretty and set up very nicely. Very comfortable beds and futons too. The location was also very convenient with a short and pleasant walk to the station. We thoroughly enjoyed our time.

The units are in a great location and very convenient to the train station. They accomodated our group of seniors, adults and kids really well. Communication was great and having someone meet us at the house for check-in was really helpful. My only issue was the futon sleeping mats were very hard but i expected that when booked.

5 days at Uan Kyoto

An absolutely beautiful few days at Uan. We couldn’t have wished for a more picturesque location in lovely Higashiyama, beneath the hills. We loved exploring the local area and wereIn walking distance of many gorgeous locations and restaurants with Gion so close. Thank you Kei, Satoru and Mika for a wonderful experience

Serene location in Kyoto

Hana house was just perfect for our family of 4! It was so nice to have a little more space than we’d had at the hotel in Tokyo, and it gave our kids room to spread out. The place was very tidy and had all the amenities we needed- the washer dryer was key! The location was beautiful, right near a large park/temple, and easy walking distance to Gion. Communication was prompt, friendly, and easy. We would highly recommend!

Perfectly situated and decorated for Kyoto experience

We hired 3 separate houses/units of this property for 3 families traveling together. Each unit had a unique charm, and was very thoughtfully equipped and decorated. We absolutely loved being close to some of Japan's treasured temples and shrines, with so many amazing options for calm strolls. The host was very communicative and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable. Highly recommended if you want a place to escape from the crowd in the central Kyoto.

Comfortable 2-bedrooms apartment in a charming area

The apartment has a lot of character, has good A/C and the rooms are well furnished. The check was easy. The host is very friendly and speaks excellent English. We loved the neighborhood. It is near a metro station and is charming, with a few shops and bars. Although it is within walkable distance to Gion, it did not feel overly touristic. Strongly recommended!

Lovely traditional home in historic neighborhood

We really enjoyed our stay with Kei and Mika - the house was very clean and exactly as pictured. It had all the requisite amenities for a family traveling with small children and infants - a full kitchen, washer/dryer, and bathtub. One room is western style bed, the other is traditional futons on tatami mats, both very spacious, quiet, and comfortable. The house is in a great location too, close to the metro and easy walking distance to Kyocera, the zoo, and central commercial areas, and also right next door to a beautiful mountain-side shrine. Would definitely recommend to any families wanting to explore Kyoto!

Wonderful quiet location in Kyoto

Our family of ten (eight adults and two kids) rented two of Uan Kyoto's lovingly renovated homes in the Higashiyama neighborhood of Kyoto in April. We all agreed Uan is one of the best properties we've ever stayed in: perfect location in a quiet neighborhood yet an easy walk or bus ride to all the sights, right next door to two different temple complexes, and excellent local dining (try Jyujyu Tonkatsu!) Managers Satoru and Mika were prompt and friendly in their communications, even going so far as welcoming us in person (at 8:00 pm) and making restaurant reservations for us (complete with numerous last-minute changes, sorry Mika!) While both spaces are on the small side (especially Kaze with its tiny common area) we were mostly out and about so we didn't mind being cozy. Two of Kyoto's most prestigious hotels are within a block or two so you know Uan is in a great part of town. (The Westin's buffet, while expensive, was one of our favorite meals.) We really enjoyed visiting the less crowded northern sites like Nanzenji, the Keage Incline and canal museum, the Lake Biwako canal cruise, Mt. Hiei and Sanzen-in Temple in Ohara. We didn't get there this trip but Arashiyama would be easy to reach, while Nara is a quick ride on the Kintetsu-Nara line. All in all, we highly recommend Uan Kyoto!locatilocation in

Maison confortable et spacieuse

Une charmante maison à deux étages. Nous étions dans la maison ‘Hana’, au fond du groupe de 4 maisons. Les chambres à l’étage sont spacieuses et lumineuses, et la salle de bains au rez-de-chaussée est moderne et très propre. L’endroit est résidentiel et très calme, le métro est proche, il est aisé de se rendre au centre ville. Plusieurs temples sont à proximité. L’accueil a été très sympathique et nous avons facilement pu obtenir réponse à toutes les questions que nous nous posions. Nous avons vraiment été enchantés par ce séjour à Kyōto et par ce joli hébergement.

A very nice, clean place, right in the shadow of a temple. They had just finished renovations, and everything was ready as promised! Wonderful and responsive hosts met our taxi, and handled the few early questions quickly. New appliances and appointments. A sweet little coffee cafe 2 blocks away (Coffee Club) was handy, and we found great bike rentals at the Starbucks/ Bookstore 6 blocks away near the Heian Shrine near Okazaki Park. We'd stay again!!
